About My Library

My library is composed of books I have read since joining LT or books that I own. There is a whole backlog of books that I am just not going to get into! And I have a small but growing wish list for books that I want to read--LT is dangerous that way. I like to read mostly Fiction, but can be persuaded to try almost any genre.

You can find my current thread for 2023 here:

About Me

I have been a neuroscience lab researcher, an editor and writer, an advertising exec, and the Community Relations Mgr of the NBA MN Timberwolves as well as their 501C3 Director. I am currently the Director of Marketing and Accounting for a small start-up company. Career path? NO! Eclectic and fun? YES! I am the mom of three kids (see pictures): all graduates and one married. I also love TKD (3rd degree BB). And working in glass. I am also on two advisory councils for Literary Arts here in Portland, Oregon. If I don't have a TBR pile by my bed, I can't sleep!

Here are my favorite reads from 2022.
